India is the greatest country, would love to be Incredible India ambassador: Akshay

Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar has hailed India as the greatest country and said he would love to be brand ambassador of the tourism ministry’s Incredible India campaign.

Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra and Akshay Kumar are some of the names that have been doing the round after it was decided that Aamir Khan’s contract would not be renewed.

During one of the promotional events of his upcoming patriotic Hindi film ‘Airlift’, Akshay was asked if he would like to be the face of Incredible India, to which he said  ”It’s a big thing. Why not? I would love to be there. It’s a good thing”.

“India is the greatest country – that is what we want to show in this film. ‘Airlift’ means air evacuation. The film shows how 1,70,000 people were evacuated from one place to other” he added.

Airlift releases in theatres this weekend.

  • OMG in 2012
    S26 in 2013
    HOLIDAY in 2014
    BABY in 2015
    and now
    AIRLIFT in 2016

    5 Solid films in 5 consecutive yrs that makes u feel proud of Indian cinema…!! Despite all my bashing of Akki,I have to respect this phenomenal achievement.

    Only if he had said no to those crap sureshot BO failures like joker boss entertainment SIB akki would have got much more respect and love from public,media as well as box office.

    Here’s hoping his rest of the 2 releases of this year will b atleast decent as Airlift is a sureshot masterpiece

  • If Akshay becomes ambassador of Incredible India, then foreigners will be reminded of Tees Maar Khan, Joker, Blue, Chandni chowk to china etc. He will bring shame to India
    3 people deserve to be ambassador
    1.Hrithik Roshan
    2.Big B
    3.Rajnikanth

  • His problem is he goes for everything. He does not reject roles select roles and has the highest number of flops than any actor. He can’t be ambassador because every hour he is online checking for south remakes or negotiating his acting fees.

  • This Akshay is so oversmart, he thinks he is as big stars as Hrithik or Khans. He has 0% talent and no crowdpulling power. Someone how him mirror.

  • Many Indians wants Akshay kumar to ß d brand ambassador of India. He Is d Most Inspiring nd Powerful Superstar Of ßollywood.¡

  • @Ruler yeah d media,industry nd trade is mad? For everybody akshay kumar is d most successful superstar after khans or as equal to khan’s. I hve nvr seen media comparing hrithik to khan’s but hve seen media comparing akshay kumar to d khans. So pls don’t attach d name of hrithik with khan’s unnecessary.

    Now many Ppl r getting burnt ,I love seeing it .

  • @Harsh
    The problem is tht everybody wants to join hands with akshay kumar,everybody comes to him with big check in his hands for signing him 4 movies,endorsements, reality shows,performing in award shows, for making him ambassador ? everybody is aware tht he is no lesser then khans . Or maybe akshay kumar is making everybody fool ? whtvr u understand, choice is Urs …!

  • On Facebook pages
    I m reading cmnts of many many Ppl who wants akshay to be brand ambassador of India but here d hatred 4 akshay is Too much. now don’t say tht we like akshay but we hate him because of his fans . Jealousy at his best ??

  • Grab your tickets guys irrespective of whose fan you are! If you’re an Indian then don’t let down, do watch this movie. Such movies need to do well.

  • @Sunny Akkiholic Akshay compared with Khans? Ha ha biggest joke ever. He gives 60-80 crore film everytime, even Sid malhotra couldnt save Brothers Lol.
    Hrithik’s Krrish 3 244 crore = double of Akshay biggest films collection. Even Bang Bang is bigger than all Akshay films.
    There are only 4 titans of bollywood = Hrithik and 3 Khans
    Akki will never reach these 4 titans. Compare him with small stars of his stature.

  • @Sunny Akkiholic are you mad? which comparism you are talking about. The same thing that was said on media on Makki was also said on Hrithik 2000 2007 Ajay 2010 2011 Ranbir 2012 2013. So itna uchaal maat. Media always make comparism but the fact which we all know is the 3 khan’s have no competitors no rivals they are so safe in their Khan zone. You idiot I don’t want to call names of some actors ahead of Makki but no way can you compare akki with Hrithik they are completely on different league. Hrithik last movie was more than twice the lifetime of your Makki last two movies. About ambassador Priyanka and Shri Amitabh are the better contenders.

  • It will be good to see AKSHAY as ‘INCREDIBLE india’ brand ambassador.
    As Akshay has made a unique place as most patriotic Hero In film industry.
    In Movies like Holiday, Baby etc no one would hv imagine any other actor reallllyyy.

  • India is not greatest country, Norway been elected greatest for 7 years now, india not even in top30. Work on your issues rather than bring in denial.

  • Waiting for airlift and raaz 4. raaz 4 will open at around 30 crore and has chance to touch 200 crore if content is good.

  • Perfect slap to Intolerable Aamir from ONE OF BIGGEST OF OUR COUNTRY Akshay Kumar

    Aamir deserve it

    I AM HRITHIK FAN .

  • Can’t tolerate Aamir
    Now … Akshay show Aamir his place and he mean to say that anyone can replace intolerable Aamir and even by him

    Love Akshay for that you say

  • @Indicine I was searching for you on twitter to follow but the search results showed me three identical accounts. Not sure which one’s real. Kindly let me know your exact twitter ID.

  • Srk should learn from akki how not to create controversies, assume if srk said this for the question on intolerance how would everyone praise, and dilwale would not underperform

  • Indeed India is the greatest country in the world I want to see sachin tendulkar as the brand ambassador of India
